One of my favorite stories in this hot, fun, super-sexy collection! 👇👇👇
It's time to remind you that I wrote a Road House remix! This queer polyam small-town romance is just one of the fun, sexy stories in my Prem Numbers collection. Yes, the FMC's name is Lovely. And one MMC is named Elliott, because why be subtle?

In the 60-year history of the Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program, it’s never run out of money. Here are the states suing the federal government over it.

Today, Trump's trying to make us comfortable with masked agents on the streets.
Tomorrow, Trump's looking to leverage this power, take advantage of our elections, and scare voters away.
We must call this what it is: a power grab that echoes the rise of authoritarian regimes.

8yo: *contemplatively* When I play with my Legos, I feel like a god. Like, to me, it’s a game, but to my mini figs? *shakes head, raises eyebrows knowingly* It’s life and death.

My 8yo cried tonight at bedtime because I joked that since he doesn’t like to clean, he’ll need to make enough money someday to hire a housekeeper.
“I don’t want to have to get a job! I don’t like thinking about the future!”
I mean, same, but

Today my 6 year old cried because I told them we couldn’t bring their cat to kindergarten graduation 😂
One time my toddler cried because his “ice was too cold.”

2. I have a good vehicle
3. I reach beyond myself into the ineffable, and that's where I find you, my love
